Hello my 2011 550 has 24000 kms and has had 2 turbo failures.I thought it mite have had to do with the dpf being restrictive but my friend just had one fail at 35000kms but his is strait piped with h&s tune on no power.The dealer cant give any explanation,just wondering if any one may have any info on this.I know some times turbos just fail.But this seems excessive

I cannot honestly tell you how many turbos we have had replaced on the 8 2011-2012 F550 trucks at work....
We honestly have atleast one a month fail.. We have had the updated turbo and software installed... they still break.. just one more part in an increasing list....

My Company has 8 C&Cs and we have replaced 3 turbos in the last 11 months. Had another one towed due to plugged DPF filter. The fins on the turbo break and you are on the side of the road calling roadside assistance!!
